Top 10 cutest animals in the world

There are many kinds of animals on the earth, and they have different appearances. Some are majestic, some are cute and naive, and some look unbearable. Today we take a look at the top ten cutest animals in the world, which are giant pandas, harp seals, koalas, angora rabbits, alpacas, penguins, axolotls, puffer fish, beluga whales and fennec foxes.

1. Giant Panda

Speaking of cute animals, the giant panda, unique to China, cannot but be mentioned. It looks plump and plump like a round "glutinous rice ball" with sesame filling leaking out. It is simply adorable to the extreme. However, according to statistics from the World Wildlife Fund, there are only 1,600 giant pandas left in the wild. We must strengthen the protection of such cute animals, otherwise it may be difficult to see them in the future, and we can only appreciate such cute animals in documentaries!

2. Harp Seal

The harp seal has a broad face, close-set eyes, strong black claws and silvery white smooth fur. The upper body of an adult harp seal has eye-catching black markings that resemble a harp or a horseshoe. It is precisely because of these markings that it got the name "harp seal". These baby seals are usually not afraid of humans. When you gently stroke their round bellies, they will look at you curiously and show various cute expressions. They may even come over to interact and play with you, which is very cute.

3. Koala

How can we mention cute animals without mentioning koalas? Koalas are also called koalas. They have a simple and honest body, look like a small bear, and are covered in thick and soft short gray-brown hair. As Australia's national treasure, the koala is also a precious primitive arboreal animal unique to Australia. However, this guy's temper is not always so kind. Sometimes he looks docile and cute, but the next second he may have an inexplicable attack, showing an unpredictable and profound side.

4. Angora rabbit

At first glance, you might mistake it for a big ball of fluffy marshmallows, and you can’t help but want to take a bite? But in fact, it was actually a live rabbit. This is the Angora rabbit, which is a kind of long-haired rabbit. It has a charming appearance, long and thick hair, and a round and cute body. Also known as grass mud rabbits, named for their fluffy coat, they are specifically bred for excellence. Angora rabbits can be roughly divided into five types: English Angora rabbits, French Angora rabbits, German Angora rabbits, satin Angora rabbits and giant Angora rabbits.

5. Alpaca

The name alpaca is reminiscent of its appearance, which has characteristics similar to those of both camels and sheep. Indeed, alpacas are similar to camels in some ways, such as a longer neck, fleshy hooves, a similar walking posture, and a water bladder in their stomach that allows them to go days without water. Therefore, it is also called "llama" locally. However, if you look closely, you will find that its shape and structure are still very different from those of camels; for example, its body is smaller, there are no humps on its back, its limbs are slender, and the front ends of its toes are curved and sharp. He has a slender face, long pointed ears, very big eyes, and is very handsome. The tail is short and the hair is long and thin. Judging from these characteristics, it looks a bit like a sheep. Its toes, in particular, are much further apart than those of a camel, in order to adapt to walking on rocks and wading in water. Alpacas are generally slightly taller than camels, with a height of around 1 meter. The coat colors include white, camel and a mixture of the two. Some of its hairs are 60-80 centimeters long. They are soft, delicate and silky, shiny and elastic. They are thinner than sheepskin and can be used to weave woolen fabrics.

6. Penguin

I believe most Chinese people will not be unfamiliar with Penguin. After all, it is one of the most popular avatars for chat tools in China! The penguin looks like a Western gentleman, wearing a tuxedo, swaying when walking, and rolling and crawling in confusion when encountering danger. But in the water, the penguin's short wings become a pair of powerful "paddles", so it has the reputation of "the boat of the ocean". When I was a child, I often thought about going to Antarctica when I grew up, and then bringing a penguin home to raise.

7. Axolotl

The axolotl is a strange-looking animal with an obvious comic style. It looks very cute and cute, so it is called the Mexican water monster or the "hexagonal dinosaur". Its body is covered with many white and other colored mutants, forming a hexagonal pattern. In addition, its face resembles an ichthyosaur from prehistoric times, so it got the title "Hexagonal Dinosaur". Although its limbs and feet are relatively small, it has an unusually long tail. When swimming in the water, it makes a peculiar "wooparupa" sound, so it is also famous for this peculiar sound and is known as one of the cutest animals in the world.

8. Pufferfish

Puffer fish is commonly known as "bubble fish", "blowing belly fish", etc. Generally speaking, fish may act crazy if they are angry, but the pufferfish is a special case - when it is angry, its body will suddenly expand and become super cute. In fact, from the pufferfish's point of view, the message conveyed by the puffing behavior is: "I'm super angry now! I'm getting bigger! I'm so scary!" Of course, in our opinion, this puffy pufferfish is even more adorable. . But don’t be fooled by its charming appearance. Pufferfish contains highly toxic substances. One gram of tetrodotoxin is enough to kill 500 people! So be careful when coming into contact with this little cutie.

9. Beluga

Although beluga whales are huge, they are very naughty and cute. They like to blow bubbles and chase bubbles, just like full-fledged children. The "big-headed baby" beluga whale, known for its huge body and "big bulge"-like head, always gives people a silly and cute feeling, and people can't help but want to pat it on the head. . As the best "ventriloquist" expert in the cetacean kingdom, beluga whales can make up to hundreds of sounds, and these sounds are varied. If you haven’t seen their clever performances yet, you can go to the aquarium to see them.

10. Fennec fox

The fennec fox is the smallest fox in the world, even smaller than a domestic cat. They have big ears like pumpkin leaves, big blinking round eyes, exquisite little pointed faces and small bodies. Their furry appearance makes people want to hold this cute animal in their arms. . Due to their particularly charming appearance, fennec foxes are considered to be easily tamed animals. Interestingly, Antoine de Saint-Exupery's "The Little Prince" mentions a fox that wants to be domesticated. This description is actually very appropriate for the fennec fox.
